A Nigerian lady who attended Covenant University has shared the job she took on after graduating, a role many would consider the most embarrassing option with no salary. Her story has sparked reactions on social media.
Covenant University Graduate Chooses Content Creation
Oluwaseunayo Ojo, a Covenant University graduate, shared the career path she chose while her peers worked as journalists or pursued master's degrees. She stated that she selected what everyone around her considered the most embarrassing option: content creation.
Identified as Oluwaseunayooo on Facebook, she explained that her job as a content creator had no salary and no clear roadmap. Recently visiting her alma mater for an event, she shared her story in a video.
In her words: "I chose what everyone around me probably considered the most embarrassing option on the list." She captioned the video: "Three years ago, I walked these halls with nothing but a phone, a dream, and the audacity to believe it would mean something someday. No blueprint. No guarantee. Just a girl who refused to quit on herself even when she had every reason to. I documented. I showed up. I romanticized the ordinary because I knew that one day, the ordinary would become the story. And here I am. Back at the place where it all began, my ALMA MATER! not as a student, but as proof. Covenant University made me many things. But most importantly, it made me brave enough to bet on myself when nobody else could see what I was building. To every girl still in her ‘nobody is watching’ era: Keep GOING! Keep SHOWING UP! Keep DOCUMENTING! Your story is already worth telling."
